Ebay: Metcal PS2E-01 with handpiece

[Fsck]

was browsing ebay for cheap stuff. 120$ shipped to Canada for the unit, a handpiece and an sttc-537.
Like, what the hell performance/$ winnage. If I had the spare cash to throw around, I'd have grabbed it for a spare.

These are really good stations.  The only thing you are really giving up by not having an mx500 is the second output (and I know a little power, but not much)

Performance-wise you won't notice any difference between MX500 and the STSS-PS2E PSU

And it's been taken!
